ogugua88: Aww, sorry. I hate how some people have to work on holidays, especially Christmas. The world should stop that day lol. Hmm, I hope you don't mind turkey and ham, because that's what we have lol.

Olisa = Chukwu? I don't think I've heard that before.

Enyena onwe gi nsogbu= Don't bother yourself.
Mana anaro m' elikwa anu ezu=but I don't eat pork.
Ehen,Olisa and Obasi also means Chukwu.

I don't know if you are refering to my handle but it doesn't mean food.The Nri on my handle is pronounced differently from how Imo/Abia pronounce theirs,which means food. Anambra/Enugu/Delta call food "nni".

There is an Igbo adage that's says "agwa bu mma nwanyi",which means good behavior is the beauty of a woman. I don't know if that answers ur quetion.

Antivirus92: When will you stop this your rubbish of igbo diversity? You write history of igbo communities ,yet you don't know and don't want to know the history of the igbos forming those communities!

My sentiments exactly; most of these material were pulled pulled from Wikipaedia. The southern Anambra and northern Igbo is where the Nri influence and Isu habitants met. If you access the language structure of the southern Anambrarians you will instantly learn they speak about 60% Anambra Igbo and about 40% Isu Igbo. The question is are they \NriAnambrarians or Isu\Imo ?? We know they have both Isu and Nri elements but what do you call them ?? They are definitelly not Isu nor Nri:

Romance › Re: Why Do Men Refuse To Eat During Misunderstanding With Women? by NRIPRIEST(m): 8:49am On Dec 27, 2012

OCTAVO: I see it as a silly attitude when men refuse to eat just because they have a little misunderstaning with their wives. They purnish their stomach because of unnecessary pride.
Some starve themselves even for days. I just laugh whenever this happens. Will I have to beg you to eat again? Lailai!
Men are just too egocentric and always expect to be treated like some lord!
As for me, it‘s when he refuses to eat that i even scatter the house more with nice aroma.
I torment his stomach more but pride won‘t let him request for food.
Men, what is it with this your delibrate starvation?
Even if you eat outside, you still have to come to momma someday.
*Winks*

So,you can't make up with your husband after a quarell and beg him to come eat...which kin wife you be?? Abeg loosen up,jare.

Ogugua,these are some of the translations. But I must warn you so you don't get confused. I know you probably understands that Anambra\ Delta Igbo but couldn't write in it. However,you must remember that Eze-Promo presents his teachings in Standard Igbo,which is different from what I'm writing with.

It should be ''thank you my man ooo''

what is ''welldone'' in Igbo!!!

Actually,"deje" in Idenmili means welldone,while "daalu" or "deme" means thank you but most ppl interchange them, nowadays.
